Chapter 541: You father is in danger...
[Two hours ago]
Richard had just checked out from the hotel and was heading to the airport. He was excited to attend the teaser launch of Ashley’s first-ever movie, so he made sure to depart a day before the event.
While his car drove in the direction of the airport, Richard ca to realize sothing odd.
The route his driver took didn’t lead to the airport, instead to headed sowhere else.
"Eric, this is not the way to the airport" Richard pointed to his driver, however, Eric didn’t respond and kept on driving.
Richard felt his behavior suspicious and quickly reached out.
"Eric, I said this is-" Richard’s words died when Eric took a sharp turn and restricted road.
Richard clashed with the car’s door, his head hitting badly on the window and he passed out.
Eric navigated the car through the rough road and soon reached the designated spot.
The man looked worried, however, when his eyes fell on the n who captivated his daughter, he cried in misery.
Wiping off his tears, Eric stepped out of the car and approached the n.
"I brought him, now please leave my daughter" Eric begged.
Four n in total waited for Eric on the spot, one of whom decided to check whether Eric was telling the truth.
Walking towards the car’s door, the man peeked through the window and saw Richard’s unconscious fra.
" He is here" the man inford the rest.
Once the man returned to his spot, another one walked toward Eric and played him a video that showed his daughter was safe back ho.
"Now leave this place and never co back, or else it won’t take us to destroy your family" the man warned ending the video abruptly, and soon they hopped into the sa car, that Eric drove and left the spot.
The driver fell on his knees regretting his doing. Richard trusted him but Eric betrayed him. If it wasn’t for his daughter and wife’s safety, he wouldn’t have deceived him.
As the car drove, the one sitting on the front turned and eyed Richard blankly. After a montary glance, the man pulled out his phone and made a call to his boss.
"Richard is with us" he inford and carefully heard the further instructions as their car moved to one of their hideouts.

An entire day passed and Richard didn’t call. Ashley found his behavior absurd now that his phone was also switched off.
"This is the limit. How can Dad turn off his phone" Ashley snapped getting up from the couch.
Pacing back and forth inside the room, she once again called Richard, however, his phone was switched off.
"I don’t know what’s wrong with him. Should he be ho by now, yet he isn’t" Ashley was now losing her patience.
Richard was supposed to catch a morning flight at 11:45 and land in country S by evening.
It was already eight past half and yet there was no call from Richard’s end.
"I should just go and check whether he reached ho or not" Ashley affird and was about to leave her room when Tristan walked in startling Ashely and she halted.
"Ash, you need to see this" Tristan’s concerned-filled voice alard Ashley, and a deep frown of confusion marred on her face.
Ashley looked into the phone where she read a text sent by an anonymous person.
’Your father is in danger, please save him’
Ashley turned to Tristan and inquired," What is this, and who sent this ssage to you?"
"I don’t know. It just ca randomly" Tristan answered.
"I don’t think we should trust any unknown person or ssage like this. I am sure Dad is fine and he must be ho by now. We’ll just go and check" Ashley assured.
Tristan was contemplated however he agreed. There was sothing fishy about this ssage, so on his way to the Brown mansion, he inford the IT team to track the ID of the person who texted him the ssage.
As the couple left the house, they ca across Gavin to seed to be searching for them.
"Brother, sister-in-law, are you going sowhere?" Gavin asked watching the couple leave this late in the evening.
"We are heading to the Brown mansion. Is there anything you want to talk about?" Tristan inquired.
Gavin took a mont before he gave him a nod.
anwhile, Ashley received a text from Richard and quickly showed it to Tristan.
"Didn’t I tell you Dad is fine? See he says that his flight got delayed so he will be coming tomorrow" Tristan’s eyes squinted reading the text before his eyes moved to see relief washed over Ashley’s face.
There was sothing off with the text Richard sent. If his flight got delayed then should he be inford before?
Gavin who stood cluelessly inquired.
"Is everything okay? I an you two seed a little disturbed. Is it regarding Uncle Richard?" he asked.
Tristan averted his gaze toward Gavin and said," Let’s head to the study and you Ash, I think you should sleep"
Ashley sensed the troubled look on Tristan’s face, however, she didn’t argue and followed his words by returning to the room.
Tristan and Gavin headed to the study, secluded from everyone.
"I think they are planning on doing sothing?" Tristan said after disclosing about the ssage he received on his phone.
"Martin, he also seems to be doubtful about us. He followed Jenny to the dormitory the other night and I doubt, he saw
there"
Both the brothers gave each other an alarming look.
"Sothing is wrong and we have to be quick before it’s too late" Tristan warned sensing sothing unexpected.
Things around them started taking a new turn and they had to hold the rein of their lives before their enemies got hold of it.
"How is Jenny? Is she okay?" Tristan inquired.
"She is fine. I asked her to take a day off before I ca up with a plan to catch Martin and make him spill everything.
"I don’t think it’s a good idea to leave Jenny alone. What if Martin tries to co after her?"
